Hearing her mother's voice directed at her and now towards had to be one of the best feelings for Avril. She didn't want to let go, to break away from the hug. However, her brother probably wanted to hug their mother, just to make sure she, without a doubt, was real.

The feeling of her mother's fingers running through her hair was a great feeling as well. It was something, besides hearing her mother's voice and hugging her, that she never thought she'd feel again.

"There is so much to tell you, Mama." she said as she stepped out of the hug and whipped her eyes. It was her brother's turn for a hug.
